Chapter 208
Episode 208
The most prestigious family in Italy.
Bianca Academy.
The best thing about the geographically isolated Bianca Academy would be the beautiful scenery where sunlight melts into the blue sea.
Chow ah-pa aa-
The second was the sound of nature’s waves that calms the mind.
And when her favorite readings were added to these perfect backgrounds and sounds, Bianca couldn’t ask for more.
Well, if I add a little exaggeration, the reason why I became the representative of the student council and the national competition was for this perfect reading.
‘But…’
Glancing.
Sophia looked away from the book and looked at Leon, who had a serious expression on his face.
Leon Este.
The word ‘perfect’ seemed to suit the boy, who had a perfect face like this statue, deep transparent walls, and gorgeous blonde hair that caught attention.
However, for Sofia, who likes analysis, Leon’s evaluation was a little different.
‘Perfectionism rather than perfection.’
The two sound like similar words, but they are completely different. Now that Adela is away. Because Leon’s worried face with a nervous face was far from the word perfect.
“…The day I was supposed to come back was yesterday. Adela-sama hasn’t contacted me today.”
“I haven’t heard from you, but… I heard that you are taking a break at Gaon Academy after the raid is over.”
Leon made a surprised expression at Sophia’s answer and smiled.
“Thank you, Sophia. …I understand, but I was too grumbling. However, even considering that, you spend too much time at Gaon.”
Surprising gestures and tone.
From her manners in dealing with people to the way she developed her words, when Sofia interacted with Leon, it felt like she was looking at a window that had been wiped clean without a speck of dust on it.
Beautiful yet distant.
Something felt dangerous.
‘Why is that person doing that?’
Leon is the man who instructed me to digest the busy schedule until yesterday, devote myself to training today, and even find out the trends of other parties.
Only 5 hours of sleep.
I heard that even it manages the time to sleep and the time to wake up. Even on a tired day after completing a dungeon raid, that was no exception.
As an observer, not a colleague, Sophia was curious.
The reason Leon was pushing himself so harshly was because of his desire to improve, but there was something wrong with him.
So if…
‘I, the observer. By adding a little bit of what we know about Leon-sama… Shall we make a guess?’
What if it was because of his longing for his older brother? What if it’s because of the brilliance of your own family? What if you just acted as your perfect self every moment?
Somehow Sophia felt that the story was being drawn into a vivid picture.
The older brother who left the country for the honor of the family that is gradually losing light. The younger brother, who admired and followed his brother’s footsteps, suppressed his sadness and instead perfected himself.
In the process, the image of him whipping himself more fiercely than anyone else and pushing him was enough to shake the hearts of observers.
‘really. It’s a really interesting story.’
To raise the name of yourself and your family. What is Leon feeling right now to send support to his brother abroad with proof rather than words?
Less evil –
Sophia closed the book.
After finding such an interesting story, I could no longer immerse myself in the theory of shortening the influence of mana on marine life through Jewel Island.
“I understand. According to my calculations, the odds of Bianca Academy winning when they successfully form a coalition are more than doubled. …it can be frustrating to see this important time cut short.”
but.
In Sofia’s opinion, Adela and Leon were not compatible. The two look similar, but they are human beings with different directions and goals.
Speaking in his own way, if Leon was a mountaineer who climbed the mountain in silence, Adela was a traveler who moved as her heart led.
‘The destination is the same now. We’re moving together…’
Sophia knew.
That different gears don’t always move together.
Sophia definitely thought that one day they would be entangled and broken apart.
If there’s just one thing I’m curious about… Adela, who returned to Italy after giving up her position as the head of the Gaon Academy for the national competition, is still tied to Gaon.
‘The reason why Adela-sama has not returned from Gaon until now.’
There was only one question as to why.
* * *
One day since I got the ‘black card’ that the limit is unlimited. Shin Yoo-seong, who fell asleep deeper than usual, saw a strange sight as soon as he came out of the room.
Hearing-
“Kyahoouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu? I might be great too!”
clap clap clap-!
“that’s right. Great. velvet.”
I couldn’t get used to the appearance of Velvet performing tricks by blowing fire at the ceiling of the stale room, and Adela clapping and praising her with an expressionless face in the corner of the stale room next to her.
